We are renovating...

The best blogs for me are the ones that are personal so I thought I would share with you what is going on at Casa R&J at the moment.

When we bought this house a few months ago we always knew it was a bit ugly and the one thing we wanted to do was to repave the driveway. The house was built in 1935 and still has the original paving so a revamp was long overdue....

We're going for whats called Inprinted concrete which is a kind of grey cobblestone, No one else on the street has got it so its hard to say exactly what it will look like but I'm hoping we're going to like it

Here is our house before....

And here it is yesterday morning!

I'll post another pic when its all done !

And I also need to redo those hanging baskets - they are too high to water and so have died, I need to find some other more hardy plants to fill them with to get me through the winter! I need to pick my mums brains...

A Chi Chi Affair is a lifestyle blog where I chat about entertaining, pretty parties, interiors, my style, recipes and everything in between! I'm also mummy to an adorable little girl! I hope you find some inspiration here!
